@Tristian the straight coat is my favourite coat this season but it hasn’t shown up yet.
There’s this Grey-green Harris tweed version below.

And there’s also a black version but I don’t know if the black is also Harris tweed or if it’s a wool/poly

@OccultaVexillum yeah this in the harris is great, but I've yet to see it anywhere, either. I'm worried it'll be too long for me, though; is that its official name? The straight coat? Do you know what it'll be retailing for by chance? I'll keep my eyes peeled.

A few new things uploaded to the Lemaire site, including the straight coat. I didn't expect it to have a storm flap (?) from the pictures I've seen of it, but I like it. I'm just going to weep over its cost in CAD for a while. Also happy to see the poly-wool straight pants for sale.

Anyone try the coats this season? Are they still enormous (size down 2)?

Photo dump of the last half of my pre order.
Reporter vest, XL
I got an XL so I could layer it over outerwear but it still kind of works with just a shirt. I might actually wear it with some of the flap pocket and military shirts but not a straight collar like this.
Really happy with this, I’ve wanted one for a while and feel like this is the best (mens) version. All the snaps and zips and 3D pockets etc are very satisfying

Wadded overshirt in almond milk, 50
I probably could have done an XL in this, the wadding makes it feel slimmer than it looks. But overall I think this is the right size since I’m not planning on layering under it.
It feels like a cloud, lightweight and soft fabric but the wadding is very comforting and adds density. Even the collar is wadded.

I'm really tempted by the soft coat, but it looks kinda thin and flimsy...
